Wildfires burning across the Prairies have caused widespread poor air quality across Canada, affecting multiple provinces including British Columbia, Alberta, and Quebec. Environment Canada reports that conditions are expected to improve over the weekend with the arrival of a low-pressure system bringing precipitation. However, areas in northern Alberta will see little relief. Many regions, particularly in Ontario, remain under air quality warnings due to harmful concentrations of fine particles in the air, with certain cities rated at moderate to high risk on the air quality index as of Saturday.
A low-pressure system moving through the Prairies is expected to bring precipitation and improve air quality impacted by wildfires, particularly in southern regions.
